Lament
I've seen your fairground hair,your seaside eyesYour vampire tooth, your little truthYour tiny lies
I know your trembling hand, your guilty prizeYour sleeping limbs, your foreign hymnsYour midnight cries
So dry your eyesAnd turn your head awayNow there's nothing more to sayNow you're gone away
I know your trail of tears, your slip of handYour monkey paw, your monkey clawAnd your monkey hand
I've seen your trick of blood, your trap of fireYour ancient wound, your scarlet moonAnd your jailhouse smile
So dry your eyesAnd turn your head awayNow there's nothing more to sayNow you're gone away
I'll miss your urchin smile, your orphan tearsYour shining prize, your tiny criesYour little fearsI'll miss your fairground hair, your seaside eyesYour vampire tooth, your little truthAnd your tiny lies
So dry your eyesAnd turn your head awayNow there's nothing more to sayNow you're gone away
